Welcome to
"Breaking Soul Ties" - a weekly column by Olusola Adio - dedicated to
help you understand what #SoulTies are and how to break them with the power of
God’s
Word and the power of the Holy Spirit. In this article, we are looking at the
definition and the origin of #SoulTies.

• Heb 11:15: “…if they had been mindful of that country from
whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned”

• Tonight, we want to look
at #SoulTies; see
how they came about, what they do and how to handle them.

• We start with the fall
of Adam. When Adam and Eve sinned in the garden of Eden, a few things happened
to them

• They lost their
spiritual connection with God. As a result, their minds became darkened and
satan set up his structures there.

• So what we now know as
the world’s
system today is a product of man’s thinking that was
corrupted by satan when Adam fell.

• Satan, over the
centuries, set up what we also call strongholds in the minds and souls of men
that became belief systems.

• 2 Cor 10:4: “(For the weapons of our warfare are not
carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds;)”

• 2 Corinthians 10:5: “Casting down imaginations, and every high
thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God,”

• 2 Corinthians 10:5: “…
and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of
Christ”

• So we see here that
apart from man being spiritually severed from God by the fall, he also got his
soul messed up by satan.

• In addition to having
his body infested by sickness & disease. So the fall affected man; spirit,
soul & body.

• Fast forward to
salvation. The salvation Jesus brought was a total package designed to affect
us spirit, soul & body.
